Great interest in mountain holidays in Scandinavia - increased international demand
As we sum up the winter season and the third quarter, we see that we have been able to offer our guests a record-breaking long winter season with a lot of skiing and newly-groomed slopes from an early start in November until the end of the season in April/May at all destinations. We continue our growth. In the third quarter, revenue increased by six percent, SEK 81 million, and operating profit increased compared with the previous year by SEK 65 million to SEK 418 million, which means that we can continue to invest in the development of Scandinavia’s five biggest mountain destinations. SkiStar’s five destinations offer everything a guest needs in the form of products and services. In addition, our long-term work on developing our skiing areas and making them snow-secure has now created greater interest from international guests. It is, therefore, pleasing to see that this year’s increased volume of guests comes from international guests, primarily from Denmark, but also the UK, the Netherlands and Germany. Growth from the foreign market has resulted in increased sales, especially in the ski rental and ski school product categories. Our ski school business broke the record with 108,000 students (up 4.5 percent) during the winter season, making SkiStar the world leader in this business. The acquisition of Trysilguidene for the season, which includes running the ski school operations in Trysil, made it possible for us to offer our own ski schools at all destinations. The changed mix of guests, with more foreign guests than in previous years, also means that we are growing across all weeks and not just during our holiday periods, which is pleasing. The number of skiing days totalled 6,106,000 (5,683,000), up 7 percent compared to last year.
The focus is, and has been, on developing our business. It is especially pleasing to see the continued growth of our retail business. During the quarter, we increased sales by ten percent (SEK 8 million) compared with the same period last year, and we continued to grow online through skistarshop.com. It is particularly pleasing that SkiStar’s own clothing brand EQPE continued to grow by 32 percent (SEK 13 million) during the quarter. While our revenue has increased, we also saw an increase in personnel costs. These are mainly attributable to acquired operations, with the acquisition of Trysilguidene, as well as the withdrawal of lower social security costs for young people. There has been good cost control with lower costs overall which, together with the increased sales in our core operation, is the main reason for the increased profit.
Our important focus on sustainability and the preservation of white winters continues. During the spring, we took a significant step in our transition to a fossil-free business by starting a pilot project in Stockholm, Hammarbybacken to run a fully fossil free skiing operation. This marks an important milestone for us as a company in our work to achieve our climate targets for 2030. Another area that we focused on during the quarter is to strengthen diversity in our organisation. During the spring, we have proactively visited schools in selected areas to recruit new seasonal employees. This has been a very successful initiative that has so far generated employment for around 100 people and has helped us consolidate our position as one of Sweden’s largest employers for young people.
Our long-term work in property development has continued during the quarter. The increasingly long permit processes make it important to continuously add new detailed plans that are ready when we deem the time right to start projects. In a restrained market, this is prioritized to add value within the exploitation operation. We now look forward to the summer season with lots of activities at all our destinations. Investment in our activity pass, which offers a wide range of activities in one and the same pass, continues. We are opening up cycling on trails and in the mountains, climbing parks, mountain coasters and summer skiing, as well as organising events and camps.
Investments of approximately SEK 330 million are planned prior to the next winter season. An important part concerns continued investments in more efficient snow production as well as the first stage of a project to build a new chairlift in Trysil. This mainly consists of replacement and modernisation investments, but also includes a new SkiStar Snow Park in Trysil.
We see a very strong demand for holidays in Scandinavia this coming winter. We are, therefore, very happy to be able to present a booking situation for the coming winter season, measured as the number of overnight stays booked through SkiStar, that is nine percent better than at the same time last year.
This increase is primarily driven by early bookings by foreign guests, who look forward to combining family time with visiting our fine, snow-secure mountain environment in northern Europe. This means that we look forward with confidence to another good winter season.

"EARLY WINTER AND A GREAT INTEREST IN SKI HOLIDAYS IN SCANDINAVIA"
Winter arrived earlier than ever before with both cold weather and natural snow at all our mountain destinations from the beginning of November, which brought good conditions for snow production and has meant an early snowy start to the season with a snow depth of between 40–80 cm. We will have fantastic conditions at all our destinations for the Christmas and New Year holidays and, above all, this will ensure a long winter season.
Operating profit declined by SEK 13 million in the period, equivalent to 3 percent. The most significant reason is the unusually favourable weather conditions for snow production and other work carried out in order to prepare the slopes during the pre-season. This has resulted in higher costs, mainly related to earlier snow-making, but has also meant an early start to the season, increased revenues and great interest from our guests.
Bookings, measured as the number of overnight stays booked through SkiStar’s mediated accommodation, are 9 percent higher than previous year, meaning that more than 80 percent of the season’s estimated accommodation sales are already booked. A strong Christmas and New Year period with high occupancy awaits us. Despite the weaker economy, many continue to choose to invest in a mountain holiday. The favourable value of the Swedish and Norwegian krona has also affected the foreign market, where we can see increased growth in the number of guests, notably from Denmark, but also from Germany, England and the Netherlands.
Prior to the season, large investments and additional acquisitions were made in our core operations. With two new express lifts, improved snow production and the development of existing ski areas and ski school operations at all destinations, our guests can have a fantastic winter experience, as well as access to ski products at all our destinations.
Retail operations continued to develop positively, despite a declining industry, and sales during the period have increased, both online at skistarshop.com (59 percent) and in our physical stores (32 percent). This resulted in an overall sales increase of 54 percent during the quarter.
Our climate targets were approved by Science Based Targets (SBT) during the previous financial year. We are currently taking the next step by clarifying our sustainability commitments within the areas of climate change. We are now focused on preserving white winters and reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 2030. By engaging with employees, guests, partners and interested members of the public, we want to create a driving force to help address climate change. We therefore invite everyone to participate in our sustainability efforts in order to make more informed choices and contribute to reducing greenhouse gas emissions. By working together, we can preserve white winters and ensue that snowy experiences remain part of our future.
We look forward with confidence to another great winter season at all our six destinations and I hope to see you on the slopes.

SkiStar is the leading holiday organiser/planner for Scandinavia with an offering and efficient organisation that has provided continuous growth and stable profitability.
The trend of active leisure time and holidays at home means that SkiStar will further consolidate its position in the future.
Sales have purposely focussed on skistar.com and the SkiStar app, where guests’ engagement has been monitored, thus giving SkiStar a direct relationship with the guest, giving the Company a competitive advantage.
The company owns substantial assets in the form of land and properties at the destinations where SkiStar operates. Property development and exploitation operations generate not only capital gains, but also strategic projects that increase the number of beds at destinations, and thus potentially also guest numbers, for core operations.
As a SkiStar shareholder you can enjoy a 15% discount on SkiPass, ski school, and more.
The basis of SkiStar’s offer is to generate sales before the guest arrives atthe destination. Over 70 percent of SkiStar’s sales take place onskistar.com, which is the largest sales channel and the most vitalcomponent of the business model.
A multifaceted segment encompassing a range of services and products from ski passes, accommodation, and equipment rental to ski schools, retail operations, property services, and adventure sports.
Lorem ipsum.
SkiStar is in a strong position thanks to its strong presence in the stable alpine skiing market, a diversified customer base, competitive advantages in Scandinavia, potential for market expansion, and strategic adaptability.
To strengthen our position as the leading holiday organiser for Scandinavia, alpine skiing will remain SkiStar’s main focus when creating memorable mountain experiences.
During the financial year, we continued to invest even more in the summer and autumn seasons, thus creating new sources of revenue. To increase the number of skier and activity days and thus boost revenues, the key is to attract more guests to our destinations who are more satisfied with their experience and more guests who return year after year.
Another important aspect is to strengthen the competitiveness of the destinations, with important factors such as the range of products, development of ski systems, summer activities and offering guests better accommodation while away than at home. As people’s lifestyles and holiday habits are shifting, with them moving in recent years towards more active holidays spread over different periods of the year, work is under way to review how we can meet demand for adapted opening times, lift-assisted summer activities and guaranteed snow.
At the same time, we are continuing to make investments in our mountain resorts, such as new lifts and skiing areas with plans to implement several new lifts to weatherproof and windproof Åre.
SkiStar wants to be at the cutting edge and further develop operations with a focus on increasing the number of guests and activity days at our destinations and driving sustained profitable growth.
Sales of our SkiPass are at the heart of our revenue. Based on that successful product, we have since developed new revenue sources in the form of ski rentals through SkiStarshop, our snowman Valle and Valle's Ski School, the SkiStar Living accommodation concept and much more.
Another important part of finding new sources of revenue is to even more efficiently base our actions on guests’ behaviours, purchasing patterns, satisfaction and preferences through the customer data we have from skistar.com and guest surveys, but also through memberships in SkiStar Member, using an updated strategy and development programme.
By linking our sustainability target of seven million skier and activity days to the new SkiStar Member (as each skier day or activity day will give entitlement to a bonus), we are linking our guests and members closer to our sustainability targets within ‘activity and recreation’. Guests also receive all the benefits of being both loyal guests and members over time, such as bonus points on all purchases in the SkiStarshop, be it in physical stores or online, as well as on bookings and rentals via skistar.com. To put it simply – it should pay to be active.
For SkiStar, it is important for all land exploitation and property development in the Scandinavian mountain world to be sustainable.
An important goal for us is to see a positive performance in the value of ourexploitable land. This is achieved by active detailed development plans, which lead to new projects being launched more quickly.
Another vital aspect of the strategy is to ensure a strong performance in the value of the property portfolio by developing and enhancing the efficiency of properties owned by SkiStar, not least in terms of energy efficiency and systematic maintenance
For SkiStar, digitalisation means developing our destinations and digital platforms based on customer insight and data analysis with the concepts of simplicity, satisfaction, accessibility and the safety of our guests serving as a guide.
Over the past year, SkiStar has continued to develop a number of products and services – everything from the SkiStar app to digital check-in and check-out at our accommodation. The Valle app is being developed into a ‘digiphysical’ tool as part of our efforts to give more children a sense of adventure and a love of the great outdoors. Digital business development will continue over the coming years with a focus on further guest-centric adjustments.
It is a question of being at the forefront of digital interaction with guests, to create a memorable and carefree alpine experience before, during and after their trip.
Based on our brand and existing assets, we identify, analyse and generate future business through ongoing business development, thus reinforcing and intensifying our pace of innovation. The pace of development was high during the year, not least relating to the all-year-round initiative, with more attractions being developed for the summer season, including the new adventure arenas in Trysil, Sälen and Vemdalen.
Under året har utvecklingstakten varit hög, inte minst inom SkiStar Sports & Adventures, där flera produkter har utvecklats till den nya satsningen på Stockholm Hammarbybacken, en ny äventyrsarena mitt i storstaden med SummerSki, Klätterpark, Mountain Coaster och Mountain Tube.
